This study found that young women with polycystic ovary syndrome have altered endothelial function associated with insulin resistance and lower adiponectin levels.

This study reported that ovulatory PCOS is a milder form of the condition compared to classic PCOS phenotypes, which share similar clinical and hormone characteristics.

This study found that finasteride increases anagen hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids in sports and outlines current methods for detecting urinary steroid doping, particularly testosterone, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that as hair loss severity increased in women with female pattern hair loss, the number of vellus follicles also rose, indicating miniaturization of terminal hair follicles.

This study observed that Japanese women experience diffuse central hair loss after age 40, characterized by reduced hair density and thicker hair ratio rather than vellus-like hairs.

In this study, the isotopic fractionation between tissues and diets of captive Japanese macaques was quantified, particularly noting hair's response to diet changes in controlled conditions, but these findings underscore the complexity of reconstructing long-term dietary history.

This study reports that the TrichoScan method effectively measures hair growth parameters and detected significant improvements in hair counts and thickness in men with androgenetic alopecia after finasteride treatment.

This study found that topical immunotherapy affects angiogenesis and immune cell ratios in the scalp, potentially offering insights into the mechanisms underlying alopecia areata.

This study found that vertical sections of alopecia biopsy specimens had a higher concordance rate with the original combined diagnosis compared to transverse sections alone, although both methods have their pros and cons.

In this study, females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency exhibited decreased body hair, normal sebum production, and delayed menarche, suggesting a role for DHT in hair growth and menstrual function.

Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.

This study found that Iranian patients with androgenetic alopecia had a higher terminal to vellus hair ratio compared to previous studies in Whites, suggesting potential onset of miniaturization.

In this study, trilostane treatment led to complete hair re-growth in 85% of Pomeranians and all miniature poodles with alopecia X within 4 to 8 weeks.

In this study, the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome among women seeking primary healthcare in Salvador, Brazil, was found to be 8.5% using the Rotterdam criteria.

This study found that black and Hispanic women had higher odds of self-reported alopecia areata compared to white women, highlighting potential racial disparities in the condition's occurrence.

This research retrospectively evaluated 92 skin specimens to propose histopathological criteria for diagnosing alopecia areata incognito, distinguishing it from telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that combining minoxidil and retinol additively promoted hair growth in vitro, enhancing Erk- and Akt-dependent pathways and preventing apoptosis in dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes.

This study found that white wax and its extract may promote hair growth in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity and increasing cell proliferation, with efficacy surpassing finasteride.

In this study, a topical formulation with compounds from the monoterpenoid family significantly improved hair growth indicators like anagen:telogen ratio, hair fall, and visual hair density in men and women with pattern hair loss.

This study reports that milk goats exhibit significantly more differentially expressed genes related to hair follicle cycling across different months compared to cashmere goats, especially in December.

This study found that among Japanese women with diffuse hair loss, decreased hair density without changes in vellus hair was the most common and distinct pattern observed, highlighting differences from previous observations in other populations.

This study observed that women aged 63 with androgenetic alopecia had higher insulin resistance and more role limitations due to physical health compared to those with normal hair.

This article critically assesses literature favoring horizontal over vertical sections for diagnosing scalp diseases and concludes that a qualitative, vertical approach improves diagnostic precision for alopecias.

This study found that the occipital scalp is significantly involved in female pattern hair loss, with some patients showing clinically visible alopecia.

This letter discusses how outdated measurement technology may obscure evidence of essential fatty acid deficiency in low-fat diet patients, potentially leading to undiagnosed EFA insufficiencies related to heart disease.

In this study, serum PSA levels were higher in women with PCOS, suggesting it may serve as a marker for hyperandrogenism in this condition.

Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.

This study reports that obesity significantly influences cardiovascular and metabolic disturbances in women with PCOS, with overweight women experiencing more severe symptoms compared to their non-obese counterparts.

This study found that an increased calcium/magnesium ratio in hair and lower chromium concentration were associated with higher insulin resistance in Korean adult males.
